Did you know that our chiropractor Dr Colhoun has extra certification to treat children? We want to help keep your kids happy and healthy this school year. Schools are re-opening in less than 3 weeks! That means we have less than 3 weeks to get everything organized for back to school, including backpacks. Here are some important tips for buying and fitting your child’s backpack.... Look for a backpack with lots of compartments, this will reduce the shifting of heavy contents and decrease the likelihood your child’s pack being lopsided and make for easier carrying Look for thin but durable fabric, so the pack itself isn’t contributing to the heaviness of the load. Straps and back portion of backpack should also be padded. The backpack should be no heavier than 10-15% of your child’s bodyweight. Look for thin ice packs instead of heavy ones, small re-fillable water bottle instead of a large heavy ones, this can keep total backpack weight down. Adjust the straps so the backpack is as high up on the back as possible, this will lesson the backwards force on the spine of your child and distribute the weight in a good position to be carried. Adjust straps so there is no space between the pack and your child’s body, have the pack held against your child’s back. This will also reduce the backwards force of the weight and make the pack easier to carry. If your child is in need of assistance with back to school aches, pains or injuries Colhoun Family Chiropractic has extensive and knowledgable services to specialize your child's care.

Hey Sole Mates !! A lot can happen in a couple of months! In April I was thrilled to be able to run 42.2 K on Boston Marathon Day. Today I was even more thrilled to be able to run/walk almost 4K around the track with no pain. As Joni said, " You don't know what you've got till its gone".

Hello Kincardine and area, Let me introduce myself, My name is Kris Joyce. I recently moved to Kincardine from Guelph, Ontario with my family. I’m excited to begin working at Colhoun Family Chiropractic starting this month. I have been a licensed physiotherapist since 2005. I have experience in geriatrics, pain management, and women’s health (pelvic floor physiotherapy), as well as treatment of many other conditions. I have also been a certified yoga teacher for the past 11... years which at times makes its way into my physiotherapy practice. I treat the whole person and have an approach to physiotherapy that puts the patient in the drivers seat. I have a passion for helping people and look forwards to meeting the members of my community inside and outside the clinic. I am booking new patients every day and you are able to book online or by calling 519-396-9515. See more
